ok so i dont know how but somehow my iat got ripped off my harness ( extended for mpfi swap w/ y8 mainfold). i was just wondering what the computer sees with it gone, the car still runs just fine just has a code 10

 

i imagine once the computer senses an issue with the sensor or in your case being unplugged from it entirely that it may have a temperature value it defaults to so that the engine will still run.

 

ok so its safe to drive until i can go to the junkyard and get one right, i just dont want to to lean out on me because it doesnt know the air temp, plus i already busted the tps the first time i launched it so it has a code 7 anyway

 

must have some pretty crummy mounts if the motor was able to move that far back and smack the firewall you'll be fine for now, it's not going to make your engine catastrophically fail or anything of that nature.

 

its the one that goes from the back of the tranny to the firewall that mount is shot, not to mention the y8 manifold barely clears the firewall...yeah it was a mount problem that caused that code 7.

 

How close does that manifold sit to the firewall?

 

like 2 inches or something i dont have photobucket or else id post a picture, it was a bitch to install though, but it has to come back off so i can finish the wiring up... i still need to go back and solder it up oh and will the honda dealership sell wire loom i dont want parts store crap

 

It's just wire loom, I don't think parts store crap will hurt. If you want to see close to the firewall try installing a Skunk2 manifold on there LOL

 

yeah thats about how close it is, you can actually see where the tps smacked the firewall, it upset me cause i didnt have any codes at all till then, the iat somehow fell out and was completely ripped off (yeah yeah i know blah blah blah from haters) so i need that and the plug, i plan on trying pick a part in atlanta for the plug, i think ill get the sensor new i dont want to use a junkyard sensor if i dont have to

 

I have a skunk2 manifold on mine, has to be around 1/2" of clearance, maybe less.

 

yeah its crazy close i think it would still hit even after i fix that mount
